Ready for Rainbow Books

Does anybody have an alternative to the Ready for Rainbows/Pot of Gold Books ? They cost so much money and Rainbows just take them home and never bring them back. We have tried just completing them in meeting time but naturally some Rainbows are keen to take them home to show their parents. Just wondered if there was an alternative resource out there somewhere ?

We had a similar problem! Plus we tried to find the time to go through the books during meetings but inevitably either didn't have the time or the new girls ended up missing out on other activities. So we don't use them at all. We talk about who Rainbows are, what we do and do lots of Promise activities before girls make their Promise. It also means we can regularly come back to what our Promise is with the older girls, just so they don't forget of course Then when we have girls getting ready to leave, we start to talk about Brownies and what they get up to and give a few little extra responsibilities to our 'almost Brownies'. Seems to work well for us

Hi, I thought the same that they are expensive and also we would never see them again if we let the girls take them home, if we left them at rainbows we would never find the time to do them so between me and my daughter we made our own version with not many pages to print out. If you let me have your email address I can sent it to you later as its stored on my pc, I cant figure out how to upload a file on here lol
